"make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen."

inspiration.

i've been in a funk lately. it sucks. i think i need a lot of inspiration and go out and do what things i love to do. i always think of this quote, i dont know where it came from - "Ask yourself if you are spending enough of your time and energy on the things that mean to the most to you" - and i havent, so i am going to make some changes.

i went and saw annie leibovitz lecture and read excerpts from her new book last night. it was very inspiring and insightful. she is an amazing woman.

hi my name is betty.

i have been falling in love with betty from le blog de betty. this girl has great style, and is absolutely gorgeous! her photographs are almost professional looking - here are some of my favorites.

this leather jacket is amazing! what a great find.

she really makes me want to go to france, and also get a haircut.

we just witnessed history...

"a new dawn of american leadership is at hand"

there are no words to describe my excitement. his victory speech gave me goose-bumps.

zooey deschanel is one of my top girl crushes. she was on last months issue of nylon, and i was so ecstatic! she is so low key and indie, and it is totally fitting for her to be on nylon. i love that magazine! her style is so fabulous, and i love her incredible blue eyes and raven hair. i wish i could be just like her. my other top girl crush is of course the gorgeous french actress clemence poesy. 

i am so taking more photos starting now. unless the sun isnt out, which may be a lot, because in that case, my film cameras wont expose right. i just fixed my lomo lc-a though and am so excited to use it! a few rolls came out blank before and so, hopefully it will all work out now. i also really want to use my lubitel and holga more. these days everything is digital, and i myself have a dslr and i love it, but i really want to use film, and maybe someday it will have a comeback :) i just wish i had some subjects to shoot!
